WARNING: FCC Regulations state that any unauthorized changes or
modifications to this equipment not expressly approved by the manufacturer
could void the user’s authorization to operate this equipment.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS.
FOR BEST RESULTS
• Install the motion sensor/transmitter 8-12 feet
above the ground. (Motion sensor is less sensitive
above 12 feet.)
• Locate motion sensor so motion moves laterally or
towards the detection zone (Fig. 1).
• Locate sensor away from heat producing sources to
prevent false triggering. Also be very careful not to
include objects such as windows, white walls and
water in the detection zone.
• Locate sensor away from moving objects such as
trees, large shrubs and street traffic.
• Do not install more than one motion activated
floodlight on one wall switch.
MOUNTING AND WIRING YOUR FIXTURE
NOTE:
Universal coverplate mounts to recessed or
surface mounted standard junction boxes (Fig. 2).
Junction box must be at least 1-1/2 inch in depth for
proper installation for recessed mount application.
NOTE:
Fixture can be wall or eave mounted (Fig. 3).
NOTE:
For best performance when installing more than
one Precision Plus Doppler Radar™ fixture:
• Two or more units mounted side by side (facing the
same direction) should be at least 17 feet apart.
• Two units facing each other should be mounted at
least 100 feet apart.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Disconnect
power at fuse or circuit breaker before installing
or servicing.
1. Turn off the power at the main fuse/breaker box.
2.
Connect the black wire from the fixture (A) to the
black house supply wire and the white wire from
the fixture (A) to the white supply wire using the
wire nuts (D) provided. Attach the ground wire
coming from your house to the copper ground wire
from the fixture (A) using wire nut (D) provided. If no
house ground wire is available, attach the copper
ground wire from the fixture (A) to the junction box
if it is metal and grounded. If junction box is not
metal and no house ground wire is available, an
alternative ground source must be used for safe
operation (Fig. 4).
3.
Attach fixture to the junction box with two of the
screws (D) provided. Either (2) #6 or (2) #8 screws
will work with most standard junction boxes. Make
sure that all screws are tightly secured.
4.
Apply silicone caulk around the edges of the
coverplate to provide a watertight seal from rain
and moisture.
5.
Insert lampholder gaskets (B) into lampholder
assembly, tightly against lampholder, and screw
bulbs into each lampholder (Fig. 6). (Do not
overtighten bulbs.)
6.
Turn on power at main fuse/breaker box.
AIMING THE LIGHT
Loosen the knob on the side of the lampholder.
Tilt lampholder up or down to desired position, then
retighten knob.
WARNING: Deviation from the assembly
instructions may result in a risk of electric shock.
OPERATING YOUR FIXTURE
1.
Turn the arrow on the MODE knob to “TEST” for test
mode (Fig. 7).
2.
Turn the arrow on the SENSITIVITY knob to a middle
point between “+” and “–”.
3.
Turn on the power to the fixture. Allow fixture to
warm up approximately 90 seconds before testing.
(Lights may or may not come on during warm-up
period; this is normal.)
4.
Aim sensor toward the general direction that motion
will be coming from. Maintain at least 1 inch of
clearance between sensor head and lamps. Always
position the sensor head with control switches
facing toward the ground.
NOTE: (Sensor Head Placement)
For optimum
detection, you may have to experiment with aiming and
settings. Each location will be different and your terrain
may affect the angle your sensor needs. Adjusting the
angle will change your area of detection. Here are some
general guidelines to help with setup:
• 8 ft.–12 ft. above the ground is a good range for
the placement of your fixture.
• For an 8 ft. mounting height, placing the sensor at
a 5° angle below horizontal should work well for
most locations (Fig. 8).
• If the fixture is mounted higher, the angle of the
sensor below horizontal should increase.
5.
Walk through the detection zone at the farthest
distance you want your detector to detect motion.
6.
Adjust the SENSITIVITY knob until you get desired
results. For more range, aim sensor slightly upward.
For less range, aim sensor head slightly downward.
Lights will turn OFF 4 seconds after motion stops.
7.
Adjust the “Auto” MODE knob to a time selection from
1min–12min, depending on how many minutes you want
the fixture to stay on after motion is detected. At dusk,
the photo control will activate your fixture to operate
according to the settings chosen.
NOTE:
Decreasing the SENSITIVITY will decrease the
distance the unit can detect.
NOTE:
During daylight hours, the red LED indicator light
will flash when motion is detected. This is normal.
SELECTING YOUR DESIRED FEATURE
Problem
Cause / Solution
Light

come on with
motion at night.
No power to the fixture.
• Check if circuit breaker tripped.
• Confirm wall switch is ON.
Bulb is faulty.
• Replace bulb.
Surrounding external ambient light is too bright. (If so, the unit may
think it is daytime.)
• Re-aim the head.
• Relocate or reposition the unit away from the light.
TURN OFF POWER BEFORE CONTINUING
Wiring to the unit is loose.
• Check wiring, and reconnect if necessary using wire
nuts (E) provided.
